Description
Three lime kilns, probably from the mid to late 19th century, are located on Cleeve Hill. They are constructed of grey lias and red sandstone random rubble walling. The kilns feature segmental and semi-circular brick arches with brick linings. The walls are capped with new stonework and concrete. Stone retaining walls lead down to the entrance opening. These kilns have group value with the nearby Daws Castle earthworks, which is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
